More Fleas

Mom has been slack lately! She discovered fleas on me in August (after I was repeatedly scratching and licking for a couple of weeks) and got some medicine from the vet to get rid of them. My second treatment was due last week. Well, Mom had to go to Atlanta for a meeting and she forgot to give me the second treatment.I started giving her hints last week that it was time again (licking, scratching and giving her the "look") and she finally got the message yesterday. When she looked under all of my floof, there were more fleas! Mom: I'm so sorry, PralinePraline: Just don't let it happen again!

Oh, we hate fleas!! Mama has found a couple here & there on Fetus, but we don't have the green papers to get the medicine from the V-E-T. We found out that the cheap stuff from the store doesn't work. Mama just keeps combing us with the flea comb & killing the fleas she finds. Nasty critters!

Oh dear praline, I know that. It is awful with long hairs.I have long fur too and I had the medicine before two weeks and the fleas are not dead. Mom give me a new medicine ( Prac-tice) and comb and comb....Wish you good luck !PurrsLuna

I dosen't know what a flea is but they sound like horrible things!!!Momma just gives us these yukky drops each month and says why because " we don;t want you to have any nasty worms in your insides or fleas on your out", I thoughts she was just bluffing, but I think I iz glad I getz it now :)I hopez all your fleas go away soon Miss Praline :)P.ss I don't know ifz I missed it but haz your mommas foot healed up yet???

Mom says the best way to win the war on fleas is to noever to have them so we get the once a month squirt on the back of our necks. There are several brands, and they both work well. Mom use to buy Frontline but now gets Revolution. It's the one that also prevents several types of worms and ear mites - Bonus - it's also cheaper. We've never had fleas.

O NO ask u bean to take u to the vet and have u put under same drugs and shave u her gets George shaved ones a year my aunt had her baby shaved and her love it and her body is full of beautiful colers lol good luck

Our v-e-t tolded the mom that our flea med can go on every 3 weeks, dat we didnt has to wait for 4 weeks. Umm dat is if yoo has the drop on da neck stuff. We dont like the spray stuff dat the mom got even though it was all natural (it smelled bad).

Beside treating to Praline, you must treat your house. It is very easy that the fleas and its eggs hide in the carpets. The best products that I know are of bayer ("advantage" and "advocate"). They treat to the cat and to the home.

Oh Praline that look on your face is just priceless! Yes, I think I will "Frontline" everyone here again too. Hopefully Friday we will have some $$$ in the budget for it. I want them gone before I close up the house for the winter. (ick, I hate that word!)How is Mommy Paula feeling? I hope your meds kill those nasty things soon! And, they better stay out of Mommy's rugs too!Hugs and Smoochies,Lorianna
